“Poverty drives FGM. As parents, if we comply with the law and changing times, we can take advantage of opportunities by organizations to educate our young girls, which will also prevent FGM and early marriages” @NAYAKenya@victorrasugu@unicefprotects@JackOnyando
To solve some of these issues, including FGM and teenage pregnancies, we need to have open discussions instead of holding information that may be useful in creating solutions.

Parents speaking with their children about reproductive health should not be perceived as a foreign concept. We need to normalize this in Kuria to enhance their sexual and reproductive health and rights
@victorrasugu@JackOnyando
To reduce FGM, child marriages, and teenage pregnancies in our Kuria community, education for girls and young women should start at home from as early as they can understand that nobody should touch them inappropriately #endfgm@NAYAKenya
As parents of teenagers, we have a lot of trouble. When these children learn about reproductive health in class, they try out practicals, because they are curious, and get pregnant @NAYAKenya conduct community forums to #endFGM@NAYAKenya@TunawezaEmpower@unicefprotects
It is the joy of every parent when they reap the benefits of their children’s education. As parents, we are the first teachers to children so reproductive health should also find its place into these learnings #SRHReducation#girlsprotection@NAYAKenya@TunawezaEmpower@unicef
FGM posses negative health effects to women in the society and it is a violation to their human rights...Its a collective responsibility of everyone in the community to fight against this detrimental practice and embrace Education for a better change.
Creating an env' that is friendly to Adolescent girls & boys enable them to speak out their issues and as well help parents to 've counselling thus creates awareness on vices eg. teen pregnancy.
